All,
I am trying to install the front adjustable trackbar following the write-up but I cannot get the rod end lined up to the axle mount no matter how much I turn the wheel. :confused: I have the swaybar end links disconnected but the shocks still connected. I don't know if I am rushing and not thinking straight but there must be something simple I am missing. Any help would be appreciated since I would like to get the front done today and the rear tomorrow. I guess any tips for getting the rear lined up would help too.
I anticipated this to be a piece of cake but it is being one so to speak!
Thx...

Use a ratchet strap from the frame to the axle on the other side, and use it to pull the Jeep in the direction you need it to go.
Or get a big friend to push on the Jeep the direction you need it to go

Well the ratchet strap worked...should of thought of that as I did that for the rear when I put the lift on. However, I have to take it apart again as the axle shifted too far. Actually the results are a little confusing. I started with .625 on the drivers' side and .375 on the passengers' side. So I set the adjustable rod end to .25 which should have over compensated by .125. However, the results are .25 DS and .75 PS. :confused:
Any thoughts?
